Safe Ride Home

Safe Ride is operating under normal conditions.

Sponsored by

The Safe Ride Home program is a safe and timely transportation service within the city limits of Maryville, MO, offered by students, for students at Northwest Missouri State University. Safe Ride Home provides a shuttle system so students can travel to various retail stores in Maryville throughout the week. We also offer a taxi service for late night transportation when students are in situations they feel are unsafe.

The Safe Ride program provides an important link between the University and City Community. It provides a means for students to engage in off-campus venues, shopping and eating destinations while saving them gas and wear on their vehicles.

It also benefits the Maryville community by providing a bridge for students to engage in opportunities that the City community provides.

Be on time at your pick up destination so that we can keep wait times to a minimum. The shuttle will not be waiting for students at stops. The students must wait for the shuttle at set times.
